Un parcours scientifique et entrepreneurial au service de l’industrialisation de technologies complexes

Holding a PhD in micro-technologies, Jean Michel Karam has built his career at the intersection of applied research, precision engineering and industrial entrepreneurship.

His trajectory is defined by a constant objective: transforming cutting-edge technological innovations into structured, industrialized and sustainable businesses.

From the early years of his career, he developed recognized expertise in MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) — a demanding field requiring scientific rigor, industrial mastery and long-term vision.

MEMSCAP: A Foundational Experience in Financial Markets

Before founding IEVA Group, Jean Michel Karam was the founder of MEMSCAP, a company specializing in MEMS technologies, which was listed on Euronext Paris.

This experience represents a structuring milestone in his career:

  • management of a publicly listed company,
  • implementation of demanding governance standards,
  • financial and operational discipline,
  • interaction with markets, investors and regulatory authorities.
It provided him with first-hand knowledge of financial market requirements in terms of transparency, reporting, strategic steering and long-term value creation.

With IEVA Group, Jean Michel Karam applies methods derived from precision engineering, measurement and data to the beauty and well-being industries. The founding conviction is clear: what can be measured, analyzed and modeled can be personalized, industrialized and deployed at scale.

Under his leadership, IEVA Group has been built through successive stages:

  • development of proprietary diagnostic technologies,
  • creation, acquisition and integration of brands,
  • structuring of personalization platforms,
  • deployment of physical and digital networks,
  • integration of high-audience content and communities.
A Proven Ability to Industrialize, Deploy and Monetize Under Jean Michel Karam’s leadership, IEVA Group has demonstrated its ability to:
  • industrialize complex technologies derived from micro-measurement, MEMS and data,
  • deploy them at scale across retail, professional and consumer environments,
  • integrate them into structured business models generating recurring revenues (subscriptions, services, products, royalties).
This execution capability clearly differentiates IEVA Group from purely conceptual or technology-driven approaches.

Today, Jean Michel Karam remains:

  • Founder of IEVA Group,
  • Reference shareholder,
  • An active leader involved in strategy, key technological choices and the group’s long-term vision.
He ensures:
  • overall coherence of the model,
  • alignment between innovation, execution and value creation,
  • strategic continuity in a context of growth and structuring,
  • a long-term vision focused on execution and discipline.
The vision he brings to IEVA Group is based on clear principles:
  • building sustainable technology platforms capable of evolving over time,
  • prioritizing recurring and measurable business models,
  • structuring a group able to scale without governance disruption or strategic drift.

This approach aims to position IEVA Group on a controlled, transparent growth trajectory aligned with investor and market expectations.
